Belkin insider program

[jonathanm1978]

I wanted to ask if anyone else had tried to get into the Belkin insider program? It's a testing program for Belkin devices where they send you things to try...as payment for your time and trial, you get to keep the stuff they send. I got word I was accepted, but I can't say anything about what I receive unless it's on the market for sale already...which isn't likely to happen (why test already for sale items?)

I had to sign a stipulated NDA that is pretty binding on me not saying much about items not yet public.

There is no signing up. They put out word a while back and took, I'm guessing around 50 people, then said that they received all they wanted to fill...so it's actually too late now to try and get into it. Took two surveys for them and apparently answered in a manner that they were looking for, but they only tried for about two days to find people. I just happened to see their request a couple minutes after they asked about it and I answered. They came back and said something about a lot of response but they had filled the quota, apparently this is a new program with Belkin because they called it a first-time thing, I do believe.

I wonder if Belkin utilizes the Centercode Connect portals like many other companies do? Adobe, Dell, Cisco, Logitech, Google, etc. It appears it does based on Centercode's client list. hehe

 

Centercode... http://www.centercode.com/

 

Centercode's OnlineBeta portal, for all programs not specifically managed by a large corporation...

Cisco/Linksys beta portal.. https://beta.linksys.com/

 

 

I've done some testing for Cisco, Palm, Logitech, and some other smaller companies through opportunities sent from Centercode directly looking for new testers.

I was selected to be an insider but have not received any word after submitting the form which they resent to me asking for the date. Did you receive any news on when or how we will be able to select products for us to review?

[jonathanm1978]

Nope...nothing so far. Still waiting.

[jonathanm1978]

Finally got something...Belkin apparently acquired linksys, and they are sending out the first product for beta test soon.
